Direct to Diff Redcat Updates

[lincpimp]

Ahh "spool up time"

I will say that it does not spool up as fast as an inrunner with a transmission. Now I will also say that I do not have any experience with a direct to diff setup using an inrunner. I will say that my experiences running an align 600 l and xl thru a stock emaxx tranny on 5s was different than a similar inrunner setup. The align had tons of power, but it did accelerae more smoothly, and slightly slower. Still emough rpm to brake the tires loose and wheely, but not as violent as a similar kv inrunner with the same batts, gearing, etc.

The axi in the redcat can still light up the tires till 20mph or so and has enough rpm to flip it over if the tires get loose and it slides sideways. I may try a monster 125 and 4s 5000 20c batts with some taller tires and see how the startup is. The taller tires should make the motor work harder and the 125 and 5k batts should be able to provide the necessary current if the motor needs alot to get moving. Performance on 5s is great, but I would like to run a taller tire and if I stick with 5s it will be geared for almost 60mph, which is a bit much.
